Two fingers on the back of the bat

Ankesh Kumar Asked 13 years ago

My hand are a trifle small so i use my index as well as my middle finger in the shake hand grip for extra stability

Is this wrong and should i completely alter my style and start from scratch?

Hi Ankesh,

It is better to only use the one finger on the back of the bat. When you use two you limit the use of your wrist. Try it with one finger. You will feel like you are losing some control but you will get used to it.

How should you move if you are a defender. The footwork is quite different to that of an attacker because you have a lot more distance to cover. However, we will show you the simple movement patterns that will help you to be able to cover the whole court effectively.

Like with all long serves the best option is to topspin the ball. If you get a good contact with your topspin you will be able to negate the spin on the serve.
